Full Scholarships Available

EAPPI-US is pleased to announce some unique scholarship opportunities. Thanks to the generous support of a foundation we anticipate granting several full scholarships that will cover total costs of participation. These scholarships are intended to strengthen the advocacy work of EAPPI-US and will be awarded to candidates with exceptionally strong advocacy skills and experience, and the ability to commit to post-term advocacy work.

EAPPI-US also has partial scholarships available for candidates not selected for full support.

Application forms, with dates for upcoming terms, can be found HERE. Applications are received and reviewed on a rolling basis. Please direct any questions to Steve Weaver at sweaver@cwsglobal.org. Thank you for your interest in EAPPI.
